The Saver Queen Shopping Challenge: And the winner is…

I’d like to thank everyone who participated in the Saver Queen Shopping Challenge to support their local food bank.  Your generosity during this time of hardship for many and despite your own need for frugality was truly inspiring.

I’m sorry that it took me so long to announce the results. However I am pleased to announce that after a random draw, Catherine is the winner!

You will receive a $10 gift card for Tim Hortons to give yourself a little winter pick-me-up.  Please email me with your mailing addresses and I will ship it out to you right away.

Thank you for participating and inspiring others with your goodwill this season.

Saver Queen Shopping Challenge - update

There is still time to join Saver Queen Shopping Challenge to donate food and personal items to your local food bank! Deadline for participation is December 24, so there is still time to enter to win a prize.

I filled two big boxes with food and I will be dropping them off tomorrow at the fire station, which is a dedicated drop-off zone for the Daily Bread Food bank.

If you want to participate, simply let me know what you bought, or take a picture and send it to me, or link back with a blog post that shows what you bought!

I’ve heard this year has been particularly tough on the food banks.  So let’s be as generous as possible!  Remember you can contribute more by combining great sales with coupons!

So far Kate, Nancy, Annie, Money Minder and Erran have expressed interest in participating.  Annie has already made her donation.  For everyone else, please update me with your progress by December 24th in order to be eligible for the draw!

My first giveaway starts today! Free coupons galore!

On Friday night I reached my goal of 1000 visits! I can’t thank my visitors enough!

To celebrate, I’m doing a giveaway - not a sponsored giveaway, just a free giveaway using a stash of coupons that I know you will use and enjoy!

To enter, just leave a comment under this post and be entered into a random draw for 2 coupon prize packs. It will include an assortment of coupons for all kinds of items. You have 8 days to enter, starting today (Sunday, November 2) through Sunday, November 9 (inclusive). I will contact you on Monday, November 10, to let you know if you have won.

Unfortunately, I will have to limit it to residents of Canada only, because I will be giving away Canadian coupons. I am also going to have to exclude my friends in Quebec, because not all the coupons are valid there! Sorry! However, residents of all other provinces of Canada are welcome to participate!

Coming soon to Saver Queen: My first giveaway!

Just one example of the coupons you will receive!

I officially launched my site less than a month ago and already I’m nearing in on 1000 visitors.  So, to celebrate and to thank all my loyal visitors, I am doing a coupon giveaway!  I have lots of great coupons that I’m sure you will enjoy.  The giveaway will start as soon as I reach 1000 visitors.  I am only about 125 visitors away from reaching this goal - so come back regularly to check for the details!

Kitten not included.
